There is so much that has been covered on numerous tips for women to stay chic and pretty. This doesn’t mean that there is a dearth of fashion tips for men. Whether you are tall, short, muscular or skinny, there is pretty much that you can do for yourself and look presentable and stylish. You need not keep an eye on the fashion alleys or make tremendous efforts; knowing the basics can do the trick. Here are a few basics which you can take care of and make the process effortless:

The Basics:

  1. While wearing a shirt, keep the top 2 buttons unfastened. While wearing a blazer, don’t button anything except the top button of the suit.
  2. Generally guys tend to ignore the shoes. Make sure that you put some shine on them before you step out. Team the same colored belt with the shoes.
  3. While choosing the socks, make sure that the color doesn’t match with your shoes. You can pick a single element from other accessories- tie, blazer or shirt and match the color with the same.
  4. This may sound quite different but make sure you carry a silk handkerchief. You can put it to multiples uses and also it adds to your style quotient.
  5. Invest in a black leather jacket. This can help you get that unfussy look with almost anything you couple with it.

 Dressing up

Most of the people don’t dress as per their body shape. Blindly copying the runway trends is not an option as you must always accentuate your physique. What may suit someone else might not suit you at all. Going for comfort and dressing in accordance with the type of physique can come out pretty well. Let’s have a look at some of the common types of body shapes and how you can play your strengths:
Dressing up

1. V-shape: If you are blessed with this kind of physique then you have broad shoulders and narrow hips. You can show off at the beach but how should you dress up elsewhere? Make sure that you are always wearing fitted stuff and shun the short jackets and anything double breasted. Opt for slim-fit shirts and V-neck tees.

2. Bulging belly: If you are trying to hide your belly fat then you will have to get rid of certain perceptions. Generally, people shop for big and end up looking huge. Things to avoid include bold prints, patterns, and horizontal patterns as they draw attention to your voluminous physique. Go for one or two button suits and long V shapes to appear slender. Shop for waistcoats and jackets and buttoning them can do the trick in hiding anything that is superfluous.

3. Slender: Steer clear from anything that is oversized. It will simply hang off you and though it might seem right to you but the fact is that it would simply appear as if you have picked it from your dad’s wardrobe. Pick up double-breasted jackets and collars. Shopping for polo shirts over t-shirts can make your shoulders look broader.

4. Shorter frame: If you have a compact built, then chances are your clothes overshoot you. The first rule of thumb is to avoid horizontal stripes and oversized jackets that can go up to your glutes. Opt for vertical stripes as they make your frame appear taller. Befriend a tailor so that you can get your clothes easily fitted. The fit will play an important role to make you stand out as the fit of everything from your head to toesshould be in sync with each other. ​
